KYLIE MINOGUE MISSES THE FAMILY BOAT


Kylie Minogue, who turns 40 this year has revealed that she may not get married or have children.

From Neighbours to Can't Get You Out Of My Head, the Australian pop princess has always been career focused and she feels that the family path may not be the right one for her.
Studies show that many Australian women today are more career focused than they were 20 years ago, and less women are eager to start a family.

The past few years for Minogue have been eventful, which may have been the cause of distraction.
She recently announced that she was initially misdiagnosed with breast cancer and she is also reportedly back with loverat, Olivier Martinez.

Minogue is currently promoting her new album, X and has just announced a new world tour.

GIANT FLOUNDER WINS RED BULL FLUGTAG


The 2008 Red Bull Flugtag took place on Sunday, 6th March, and the Australian first event attracted 60,000 spectators to Mrs Macquarie’s Point, adjacent to the Royal Botanic Gardens in Sydney.

They were there to see the thrills and spills as individuals of questionable sanity were launched off a 6m platform by their team-mates dressed as characters from South Park and Top Gun, plus mice and butterflies.

The “Flying machines”, as they were called, ranged from a Lego bi-plane, to an ACME rocket and giant box-kite, which predictably plummeted into the Harbour to great cheers from the crowd.
As papier-mâché fighter planes and a helicopter were shot down, the surprises kept coming. Proving that time flies when you’re having fun, Team Time Warp executed an “elongated drop”, managing 11.8m with their sturdy, wingless clock.
Meanwhile, favourites for distance da Vinci Red Squadron came unstuck, and Dirt Action bit the dirt.
A big congratulations goes to Giant Flying Flounder that swooped victory at the Red Bull Flugtag.
